About Aliki the Dictator
A young woman arrives in Athens with her dog after the death of her father, the head of a bouzouki band that broke up because television took away their work. She settles in the humble home of a friend, who is married to a petty crook, and looks for work. At some point, she meets a blind student and a mutual attraction develops between them, which blossoms into love.
Directed by Takis Vougiouklakis, Aliki the Dictator leans on a strong ensemble — Aliki Vougiouklaki, Nikos Galanos, Nikos Rizos — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1972.
